On one-dimensional pressureless Euler--Poisson systems: existence for non-semiconvex interaction potentials
Abstract
One-dimensional Euler-Poisson-type systems with interaction potentials that are repulsive at short range and attractive at long range are useful simplified models that describe biological aggregation. In the current work we employ new techniques to treat compactly supported solutions in the case where the potential is C1 and satisfies certain coercivity growth conditions although it is not necessarily semiconvex, as required in previous work. Central to this approach are uniform bounds on the positions and velocities of discrete sticky-particle solutions to such a system, which requires the potential be only C0, 1loc. In the semiconvex case, these bounds also yield convergence of time-shifted trajectories to an eternal solution. The tradeoff, just as in the case of repulsive Euler-Poisson, is that we cannot claim that the emerging solutions for non-semiconvex potentials are sticky.
